Slippery and rough (滑澀; the first character is pronounced with the fanqie 還八 [huá]. The Guangya states: '滑 (huá) means pleasant.' The Shuowen jiezi states: '滑 means smooth and sharp. It takes "water" [水] as radical and 骨 as phonetic; 媄 is pronounced 美 [měi].' The second character is pronounced with the fanqie 森戢 [sè]. Wang Yi's Commentary on the Chuci states: '澀 (sè) means difficult.' Guo Pu's Commentary on the Fangyan states: '歰 is like stingy or blocked.' The Shuowen jiezi states: '歰 means not slippery. It takes four 止 characters, two upright and two inverted.' It is also written as 濇. In the treatise text, writing it with the "water" radical as 澀 is a vulgar error).
